The Hiligaynon people, or HIligaynons, are the indigenous inhabitants of the large coastal plain if East Panay island. Over the years, intermigrations and intramigrations have contributed to the diaspora of the Hiligaynon to different parts of the country. Now, the Hiligaynon form the majority in Iloilo province, Negros Occidental province, Guimaras province, and Sultan Kudarat province.
